Ok guys I just bought my uncle's 1983 Johnson 30 hp long shaft motor from his wife for 300.00!!!where is the best place to get a wire harness? this motor came with his pontoon boat he used it like 3 times and re-powered his boat. and has had it in storage I got it running by hot wiring it it looks like a brand new motor I think i should mix a bit more oil in the fuel as this motor don't have 10 hours on it!!!! let me know what you think thanks

Double oil for first 10 hrs. Avoid full throttle during that time and vary power settings frequently. You could either buy a new harness (pricey) from a dealer or try to get a used one from any of the salvage yards listed in the Top Secret Files.
